Description

This app will help you count the Omer from Passover to Shavuot by keeping track of the count and giving you the blessing and the Hebrew for each day's count. For each day of the Omer, it will also show you which quality was connected by the Kabbalists with that day, and it will give you a quote related to that quality, along with links to find out more about counting and what it means. It will also help you count the seven weeks from Tisha B'Av to Rosh Hashanah.
What is the Omer? Exactly seven weeks fall between Passover and Shavuot, marking the transition from the redemption in Egypt to the revelation at Sinai. This period is called the Omer, and it also corresponds to the time between the barley harvest and the wheat harvest in ancient Israel. (An omer is a measure of grain, like a bushel.) Each night during the 49 days of this seven week period, the count of the days is recited with a blessing--this ritual is called "Sefirat HaOmer." In Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism), each of the 49 days also corresponds with the purification of a specific quality within ourselves that connects to the divine. These qualities are called "Sefirot," and remembering which qualities correspond to each day has been part of the ritual of counting the Omer since the Middle Ages. The app keeps track of the days and the Sefirot and also includes quotes and intentions for each day. There is also a modern custom, based on the Sefirot and counting the Omer, to similarly count the days from Tisha B'Av to Rosh Hashanah.

Not working

I really like the content of this app but it is so hard to navigate . It has not advanced to a new day from the first day that I logged on and it is so hard to figure out how to move between sections . I am so disappointed because the aesthetics and content are amazing . I would love help if possible . I just downloaded it this year for the first time

Simple and beautiful

I like the poems and other resources. I love the visual presentation. A pleasure to use.

Well intentioned but badly needs updates

MaryPoppinLock on

Nice alternative counting app but not polished. Slow response from buttons on bottom ribbon, unintuitive layout, no obvious way to mark past days as counted regardless of status (to accommodate those finding the app during the Omer and still counting with a blessing). Not very user friendly. In summary, if you didn’t get this app before the Omer, you’re out of luck on being able to mark that you’ve counted to personalize your use. Better luck next year. Hopefully an update or several will fix some of this! Would love to see a polished version, as I love the etz chayim / sfirot. But for now, Chabad comes out ahead for the most user friendly, responsive app.

Easy and inspiring

Easy to navigate interface and quotes to uplift during the Omer — what could be better?

I have been using this for years after several years of unsuccessful attempts at a meaningful Omer practice. I finally found THE app for Counting the Omer! This app is so user friendly, informative, inspirational, and most importantly reminds me to do the count every night ! Thank you!!!!!!!

Great app

This app is so helpful for remembering which day of the Omer it is and counting it correctly. I love that I can simply count the Omer if that’s all I want, or I can get more—a quote for the day and the sefirot for the day. It is really useful.

Favorite Omer App

I have been using this app for several years to count the Omer. I love the thought provoking comments, the helpful links, and the mystical teachings. I appreciate that that I can make choices on the Nusach so I can use my family’s Sephardic tradition.This app is also very aesthetically appealing. The daily reminder keeps me on track!

Makes counting easy and meaningful

This app is wonderful. I use it every night to count the Omer, and I love reading and reflecting on the quotes, R’ David’s prayer for democracy, and Ana B’Ko’ach. Highly recommended for both first-time Omer counters and those who have been practicing Sefirat Ha’Omer for years!

Horrible app
